Elisha is at the synogogue doing his nightly prayers when a guant, shadowy fellow, dressed in shabby black clothes approached him with a look in his eyes that was not of this world.
Elisha
Are you a stranger?
Beggar
I'm not from around here...
The Beggar invokes Elisha with fear and has the urge to do something for him. The sygongue is empty and it is midnight, the hour when the dead rise up from their graves to say their prayers.
Beggars are often the Angel of Death or Prophet Elijah in disguise, to offer the reward of eternal life to those who treat him well, I must be kind to him
Come to my house to eat and sleep, I have to go home soon.
No thanks, I never sleep, but I shall keep you company as you walk.

I am afriad of him too, but it seems he already knows that
Yes I am
Are you afraid of the dark?
The tragedy of man is that he does not know how to distinguish night and day.
You musn't be afraid of the dark, night is purer than day, it is better for thinking, dreaming,sleeping, everything is more intense, true.
Elisha and the Beggar come to a stop at Elisha's house. Elisha invites him in but the beggar declines.
Goodbye..

Always look at a window, if you see any face, you can be sure that night has succeded day, for night always has a face.
